The emerging workplace challenges we are seeing today highlight a generation shift that creates new demands on employers. Sick-leave is in itself becoming more complex and the challenge for leaders to keep a healthy, productive and happy workforce have never been greater. In particular, we see that leaders need to give greater focus on organising work in accordance with an employees Workability and enable them to be at work as much as their health allows. Employers in general know too little about health and doctors have too little information about a patients workplace. One major frustration we hear from leaders is that the doctor is the gatekeeper of sick leave, but they are not available or involved in finding the facilitation solution to keep the employee in work, or the follow-up to help the employee back to full work.
